EXTRAORDINARY WORK

Kiwanis, through guidance and example, works to develop future generations of leaders. Every day, Kiwanians are revitalizing neighborhoods, organizing youth-sports programs, planting trees, building playgrounds, and performing countless other projects to help children and communities.

Serves . . . . .

Western Nevada County through community service projects in support of our youth, senior citizens, and the community at large.

Fund Raising . . . . .

The Art Doll Project:   This year Nevada County artists and community members transformed over 120 plain muslin dolls, into “art dolls”.  

Money raised from this event helps purchase plain muslin dolls to be donated to local hospitals

Click on Art Dolls on the menu above left to see some of these dolls.

Our other major fund raising project s are a food booth at the Nevada County Fair as well as the Draft Horse Classic. In addition, we launched a new fund raising project in 2007 - the Kiwanis Beach Party, presented for the first time, and very successfully, on November 9, 2007. The Second Annual Kiwanis Beach Party  was on Saturday, November 1, 2008 at the Miners Foundry in Nevada City. 

Service Projects . . . . .

In addition to our support of three Key Clubs, one at each of our local high schools, we also stage a Kiwanis Back-to-School project where almost 60 elementary school students are assisted with their back to school needs. This project is co-sponsored by K-Mart.

We also support a variety of other community service projects through the activities of our Team One committee, including a very successful pediatric trauma and child car seat replacement program.

Our Goal . . .

We have barely enough members to successfully support the projects we are currently working on but not enough to do what we would like to do for our community.

It's Your Choice . . .

"Private choices are not private;  they all have public consequences.  Our society is the sum total of what millions of individuals do in their private lives. That sum total of private behavior has worldwide public consequences of enormous magnitude. There are no completely private choices." 

James E. Faust - 1987

Children of the World
